In this groundbreaking work he reveals fuller meaning to these stories than previously recognized and underscores the limits of structuralism in understanding them"--$cProvided by publisher. 330 $a"The Bungling Host motif appears in countless indigenous cultures in North America and beyond. In this groundbreaking work Daniel Clement has gathered more than four hundred North American variants of the story to examine how myths acquire meaning for their indigenous users and explores how seemingly absurd narratives can prove to be a rich source of meaning when understood within the appropriate context. In analyzing the Bungling Host tales, Clement considers not only material culture but also social, economic, and cultural life; Native knowledge of the environment; and the world of plants and animals.<BR /><BR /> Clement's analysis uncovers four operational modes in myth construction and clarifies the relationship between mythology and science. Ultimately he demonstrates how science may have developed out of an operational mode that already existed in the mythological mind.<BR />"--$cProvided by publisher. 606 $aIndian mythology 606 $aFolklore$zNorth America 606 $aIndians of North America$vFolklore 606 $aAnimals$xSymbolic aspects 606 $aEthnology$zNorth America 606 $aMontagnais Indians$vFolklore 606 $aInnu Indians$vFolklore 606 $aMyth 606 $aSOCIAL SCIENCE / Ethnic Studies / Native American Studies$2bisacsh 606 $aLITERARY CRITICISM / Native American$2bisacsh 615 0$aIndian mythology. 615 0$aFolklore 615 0$aIndians of North America 615 0$aAnimals$xSymbolic aspects. 615 0$aEthnology 615 0$aMontagnais Indians 615 0$aInnu Indians 615 0$aMyth. 615 7$aSOCIAL SCIENCE / Ethnic Studies / Native American Studies. 615 7$aLITERARY CRITICISM / Native American. 676 $a398.208997 686 $aSOC021000$aLIT004060$2bisacsh 700 $aCle?ment$b Daniel$f1951-$01694334 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910815246503321 996 $aThe bungling host$94072819 997 $aUNINA LEADER 02092nam 2200481z- 450 001 9910557473503321 005 20211118 035 $a(CKB)5400000000043063 035 $a(oapen)https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/73209 035 $a(oapen)doab73209 035 $a(EXLCZ)995400000000043063 100 $a20202111d2019 |y 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurmn|---annan 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 00$aThe Earth-Moon System as a Dynamical Laboratory 210 $cFrontiers Media SA$d2019 215 $a1 online resource (156 p.) 311 08$a2-88963-044-7 330 $aThis eBook is a collection of articles from a Frontiers Research Topic.
